The Brent crude futures contract surged 4.99% to settle at $87.72 per barrel, amid heightened geopolitical uncertainty across the Middle East.

US officials indicated that a diplomatic agreement with Iran was nearing completion, but Iranian officials denied such progress and stated that Tehran is focused on securing control over the Strait of Hormuz while pursuing separate diplomatic discussions with Oman.

The prolonged risk of closure across both the Hormuz and Bab-el-Mandeb straits presents a severe risk of global oil supply chain disruption, impacting economies in the US and Iran.
